Re: Waddington International Airshow - Saturday

Too many to comment on individually but overall that's a great set of photographs, what lens were you using?

Re: Waddington International Airshow - Saturday

Great set of pictures mate I particularly like the Vulcan and Lancaster pair, it's been a few years since I attended an airshow and seeing your pictures I wish I had been there. Thanks for sharing your shots they are superb.

Re: Waddington International Airshow - Saturday

Fantatastic set there - looking forward to seeig more of your work.

Another vote for No 2 from me - I can't help but think that PP possibilities could do even more wonders with what is already an excellent image.

Re: Waddington International Airshow - Saturday

Welcome - nice first set of shots.

I like No. 2 as well. I think it's the soft light and the strip of dark cloud at the top.

All nice though

Re: Waddington International Airshow - Saturday

Loved the shot of the Lancaster and Vulcan together - great to see the Vulcan flying again. Also loved no 10 - very difficult to capture that precise moment when both plans are crossing. A brilliant set of pictures, well done.

Feel free to have a play with it if you wish, I'm certainly not too proud to take on board the advice of others.
